Meyerhof

How To Use Meyerhof In A Sentence

• Meyerhof and Hill's pioneering thermodynamic studies had been the basis for the conclusion that the cycle of lactic acid formation and oxidation were the key events in glycolysis. Otto Meyerhof and the Physiology Institute: the Birth of Modern Biochemistry
• Meyerhof's greatest achievement was his ability to clarify both the starring and supporting roles of the many molecules involved in glycolysis and then place them in proper sequence of the metabolic script. Otto Meyerhof and the Physiology Institute: the Birth of Modern Biochemistry
• Early on, Meyerhof's group spent considerable effort to investigate the effects of hexokinase, which Meyerhof had discovered in 1927. Otto Meyerhof and the Physiology Institute: the Birth of Modern Biochemistry

Otto Meyerhof and the Physiology Institute: the Birth of Modern Biochemistry
• Meyerhof and his colleagues in Heidelberg worked out step after step of the glycolytic pathway. Otto Meyerhof and the Physiology Institute: the Birth of Modern Biochemistry
• Of Meyerhof's many achievements, perhaps the most important is his proof that, in isolated but otherwise intact frog muscle, the lactic acid formed is reconverted to carbohydrate in the presence of oxygen, and his preparation of a KC1 extract of muscle which could carry out all the steps of glycolysis with added glycogen and hexose-diphosphate in the presence of hexokinase derived from yeast.
